Bruce Willis’s Daughter Rumer Shares Heartbreaking Update On His Dementia Condition

Rumer Willis, the daughter of Bruce Willis, has spoken candidly about the ongoing challenges she has as a result of her father’s illness.

After decades of being one of the most dependable action performers, Bruce Willis took a hiatus from acting in 2022 for health-related concerns.

Later, he revealed to his family that he had been diagnosed with aphasia, a language impairment disorder.

The actor was diagnosed with dementia the next year, specifically frontotemporal degeneration (FTD), according to his family.

Speaking difficulty, compulsive behaviour, and personality changes are some of the signs of FTD, which affects the brain lobes behind the forehead.

If dementia runs in your family, you are more likely to get frontotemporal dementia. No further risk factors are known to exist.

On June 15, the eldest child of Willis, Rumer, wrote an emotional post about her father on Father’s Day, expressing her gratitude and regrets.

She wrote on Instagram: “Today is hard, I feel a deep ache in my chest to talk to you and tell you everything I’m doing and what’s going on in my life. To hug you and ask you about life and your stories and struggles and successes.”

“I wish I asked you more questions while you could still tell me about it all. But I know you wouldn’t want me to be sad today so I’ll try to just be grateful reminding myself how lucky I am that you’re my dad and that you’re still with me and I can still hold you and hug you and kiss your cheek and rub your head, I can tell you stories.”

“I can watch the way your eyes light up when you see [my daughter] Louetta. I will be grateful for every moment I have with you. I love you so much dad happy Father’s Day. Sending love to all those who are in the boat with me or have lost their fathers, to the single moms who are the dads too, to my future baby daddy…”

Rumer posted pictures of herself and Bruce over the years along with the heartfelt remark.

Rumer and her father received a lot of positive feedback on social media, with many people urging her to treasure her time with her father and to reach out to loved ones in times of need.
